Welcome to Episode #97 of the Fight for a Happy Life podcast, “Little Pain, Big Trouble.” Pain is part of life… especially if you’re a martial artist! But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to minimize injuries and avoid trouble. Those should be your first priorities in studying self-defense, in fact! Even though I KNOW this, I recently caused myself some unnecessary pain while preparing to move from Los Angeles to Raleigh, NC. I’m embarrassed to admit that my arm still hurts even as I type this! This little pain, however, serves as a great reminder that bad technique (combined with a bad attitude!) only makes life more difficult. I hope that by sharing my story, you can avoid some unnecessary pain in your life.
